verizon TP2 on Tmobile MMS issue

I have a verizon touch pro 2 that is running on tmobile network. I have the mighty rom and the arcsoft cab but I do not know the setting to set it back right. When we first did this we had it set and the mms worked perfect. Then the phone reset to verizon some how. When I set it back to tmobile the mms setting were messed up. Does anyone know what I need to set the phone to. A guy did all the work and now I am having trouble getting the info from him so I have to figure this out alone.
Thanks
I had a similar problem. I got the phone unlocked but I never had the settings. It took forever but I eventually by luck got the right exact settings I needed. I have a sprint TP2 with Tmobile service. I dunno if the phone will matter but it should work. Here is the link to the post and follow the instructions for the settings that someone posted for me. It work and Im grateful.

I just tried the setting in there. I have to go to work so I will post back tonight if it worked or not.
ok. lets hope it does
So far no. Now it is saying that it "Dialed epc.tmobile.com can not connect for an unknown reason. "
I also tried wap.voicestream.com and the same thing. I need help it wont connect.
it also will not let me connect to anything data so it seems to be my data connection causing this problem
it says that for me sometimes too, but mines work anyways. did u do the same data(T-Mobile Data) for both internet and private (when it says "programs that automatically connect to"). Both should be the same exact setting. After u do the whole process for internet just pick T-Mobile Data in the drop down for Private cause it has the information u just configured.
I did do that. And I had nothing. BUT this morning it worked. I did nothing diff from lastnight. It just started to work and has worked all day. I do not know what or why it all of a sudden worked. Oh well it works now.
Thank you for your help.
No problem . Your very much welcome.

[Q] HELP !!! Unlocked Galaxy S GT-I9000M - Data Connection Not working

Hi
If anyone can help me out i'm having a little bit of an issue. I just unlocked my Galaxy S phone with one of your guides on this website, but now i face the issue of not be able to connect to my Data. I'm with Rogers just unlocked the phone from Bell, and having a real hard time figuring out how to get it to work.
Now i can make calls and SMS and such but i cannot use my Data Plan ?
Anyone
Thank you in advance.
You need to enter the APN information for Rogers. I don't know it, sorry, however it should be easy to come by.
How would i go about changing the APN ?
Sorry real newb to all this
Hey Ben
I figured it out, thanks a bunch
Take Care
Same Problem - How did you solve it?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant (From T-Mobile) which is receiveing calls and texts on Rogers (CAnada) wireless network, but my data connection is not working.
Can you tell me how you got yours to work.
Cheers
Sam

HELP: Shows Signal but cannot use for calling,data,messaging!!!

On my Phone(Andromeda 2.0 Themed), I get the indication of having 3g or any signal at all and the minute I attempt to send a message, make a call, or surf the web it is unable to send that message, unable to make that call, and unable to surf the web. Help on how to fix this?
NOTE: A flash back to stock DID NOT help this problem at all.
EDIT: Changing APN isn't really working(Cant leave the APN type as not set because it auto sets it to internet+mms when I save) and I am starting to get a little frustrated. The reception was really working fine earlier today but now its just weird all over. Please help me out you guys, I really need this working.
EDIT2: Please help guys, I really need my service up for tomorrow.
EDIT3: I am going to AT&T today to swap out my SIM card!!!! I am all Odin'ed out and I will check back if this works.
First try to enable airplane mode. Then turn it off.
If that does not work check your apn settings, under wireless and network, mobile networks, access points

Doing that now.... The signal bar indicates no connected network.... Trying the second thing you suggested....
For the second option I am under Wireless and Network/Mobile Networks/Access Points.
My options from there are AT&T 310 410(the text under it says wap.cingular)
What do i do from there?????
That reads correct. Unless you are on rogers. Hmmm. I am on the same rom but do not have the same issue. You may want to manually configure you're apn. You may want to search the captivate forum for at&t apn settings. I think you can find them in one of the stickies
I am on att dude. Thanks for the advice. You are positive its the APN though? This happened to me on Phoenix Reloaded too.

No I am not sure, I have not had your problem but this is where I would start if it did. The apn settings are posted in the captivate development stickies, captivate directory
Okay, so I configured the APN settings to what was found in the thread. Problem is the only thing I cannot configure is the APN type. Hm. Any help?
I am sorry I hope someone who has done this reads this and has a suggestion but I have not had to do this
Read through the sticky, maybe yet has been discussed
Read through it and nothing. It wont let me keep the APN type as not set and it automatically sets it to internet+mms. Any ideas?
Have you posted in the andromeda thread? Maybe the devs may have some ideas
I just did, hopefully they have an answer and if they dont hopefully someone will post an answer here....
I had the same issue back a few weeks ago. I called att, got a replacement phone, and it did it again. Turned out to be a bad SIM.

So do I just need a new sim card???
Well, this sim card JUST started doing this. So are you sure it is just the sim? I mean, if I go to the store to get a new sim, will they ask to see my phone? Will I have to flash back to stock before I get a new SIm?

Do you think the person in the store will have any idea what a custom rom is? Chances are they will change it no questions asked
Okay, do you think I should just play it safe and reset to stock though?
There is no harm in doing so.

Well, thanks, I will head first thing in the morning.
I got the same problem at certain locations, such as my university. Haven't been able to get much help... Gonna try getting the SIM changed as it's a pretty old SIM. Weird thing is that it works fine on my Sony Ericsson G705/W715.
So almost two months of owning my Captivate that I got from Rogers (BNIB from Kijiji) and I noticed that at a certain area in my school, I have 3/5 bars of signal yet I can't seem to text/call and use the network. Is this a network problem or phone problem? Or can it also be my SIM? My SIM card is pretty old. However everything was fine when I use my Sony Ericsson W715 in the same area.
I should add that my friends on the same network beside me, they can text/call fine, which leads me to believe that this is a phone problem. A poster over at Howard Forums suggested network congestion, but it seems impossible because everyone else can use their phone fine.
I've tried different modems too, but it doesn't help. It's like my Captivate doesn't want to work at certain areas of my school.

I am just going to change my SIM. It is about 4 years old now and I think that means it needs to be replaced. I actually worked fine at my home before and now it cant even find a network. I am going to head out for a new SIM in a little bit, I will get back to you on if it works then.

NEED HELP!!!!! Please someone?

Did you flash the newest ROM and are you a tmo custy or an at&t custy? BTW... if you read through the entire 3.2 post you'd have found the solution to your problems was setting the APN under Wireless and Networks.

Did that get fixed? I heard people were still having apn issues even after manually setting them. Guess I'm off to wade through that thread!
I am with T-Mobile and I did this last night using the 3.2 post nothing more and the phone was already root with the 2.2.2 upate.
I looked over the APN post but doesnt really explain lot or give details. I know T-Mobile has 3 APN's that they use so maybe I should call them and get the information for all 3 ? I am assuming one is for MMS and the other two are phone/Data ?
Can you text with this device? I have never been able to... Not without some kind of program like Gvoice or something.

[Q] Atrix HD Straight Talk AT&T Data - No Roaming

Hey Guys,
I had a problem with Data on Straight Talk. On native AT&T coverage everything works great, but when I am on roaming (Not on AT&T but a partner network) I get calls and text but no data. Other people on AT&T get Data and my same Sim in a Captivate (CM 10.1) gets me data. So something is up with the phone, blocking roaming for AT&T. Any ideas. I have tried every kind of various APN to no avail. Looked at some other stuff like Roaming_Table_PLMN_Blacklist (In com.motorola.android.provider.settings) and other stuff try to figure this out. Has anybody else had something like this happen. I also tried unlocking. I haven't done any of the ROMS, for fear of bricking. Maybe some international person has had a similar issue, I don't know. Can't seem to find anything with search.
4.1.1 Rooted + Maxx Battery
Straight Talk AT&T Sim
Thanks in advance.
I use my AHD on ST also, but never roam. I know they don't want you roaming at all, and they disconnect peoples service over it. If you're getting talk/text while roaming I would be happy with that.
In reality,i dont think you can roam on ST,at least i never could when i was with them a couple weeks ago,this happens to me on tmobile prepaid ,i can connect to att towers and make calls and text but cant get data,weird stuff

Not the Question
I know I can access data with ST SIM with my other phone, (Captivate CM 10.1) but not this phone (Atrix HD). Why? That is my question. Something on vanilla Mot AT&T devices is blocking me from getting Roaming Data. Straight talk DOES provide the service with many other users verifying we are on the AT&T postpaid network (Including all roaming partners for voice text & data). If I didn't have another phone that worked maybe I wouldn't care too.
Would ROMs help maybe, because that is about the only thing I haven't tried. If they are close to AOSP then maybe that is the solution. I'm just scared of bricking so I must have a detailed and verified procedure. I don't have SS3 installed yet. I may try this and report back, becuase I think Captivate Stock has the same problem.
I guess AT&T put something in that conflicts with the MVNO and nobody knows how to get around it. I'm hoping somebody does though, that's why I asked, because I don't know, and am out of ideas.
I'll report back once I try this, I guess AT&T put something in that conflicts with the MVNO and nobody knows how to get around it. I'm hoping somebody does though, that's why I asked, because I don't know, and am out of ideas.
I'll report back once I try this, I will figure it out (I hope). There has to be a solution.
ThanksI will figure it out (I hope). There has to be a solution.
